Exporting fossil gas cannot be part of U.S. climate policy. @billmckibben reports on new research that LNG exports are worse for the climate than coal—projects like CP2 are disastrous. The world needs to agree to phase out all fossil fuels at COP28. newyorker.com/news/daily-com…

A Smoking Gun for Biden’s Big Climate Decision?

A new analysis suggests that L.N.G. exports may well be worse for the environment than burning coal.

Fossil fuel companies will try every trick in the book to stay in business, putting our people and climate in danger. But we wont let them. Across OR, communities are working to transition off of fossil fuels, and the movement is growing. #orpol #orleg oregoncapitalchronicle.com/2…

The UK & EU will push the world’s richest countries to end 💵 support for intl' oil & gas projects at next week's @OECD meeting. Over 50% of OECD countries already promised to #StopFundingFossils, & this new proposal could mean $41b/yr out of fossil fuels. ft.com/content/b4d0e4be-aa81…

EU and UK seek ban on subsidies for foreign fossil fuel projects
